What Is Open DNS?

Like many people, I use OpenDNS on my home network. It is a free DNS service that translates the URLs of Web pages into IP addresses.

Open DNS theoretically helps speed up Web browsing by using better DNS servers to resolves URLs faster than your Internet Service Provider (ISP). The increase is probably too small for you to notice on a regular basis, however. More importantly, the service gives you better control over the Web sites you and your family visits, and contains built-in controls to protect against hackers hijacking your brower.

In operation for just over two years, OpenDNS now is serving upwards of seven billion DNS queries per day. I've never experienced an outage or performance problem. Kudos to the folks at OpenDNS for running a fine service.

What is DNS?

What is DNS?

The Domain Name System (DNS) provides visitors access to websites using domain names rather than IP addresses.

How does DNS work?

DNS translates human-speak (domain names) into computer-speak (IP addresses). Domain names are text-based names used to identify a website or Internet location. IP addresses are strings of numbers used by every computer connected to the Internet to identify a website's location and communicate with other computers and Web servers.

DNS translates the text-based website or location identifier a visitor enters to the number-based IP address of the associated website or Internet location. For example, coolexample.com is a domain name. 208.109.80.196 is an IP address associated with coolexample.com. DNS translates the domain name coolexample.com to the IP address 208.109.80.196.

Using DNS, we can enter easily-remembered text-based domain names and reach machine-readable Internet addresses.

How does DNS know which IP address to use?

Each domain name stores its DNS information in a zone file. Large collections of zone files for different domain names are stored on nameservers. Domain names point to nameservers to locate their zone files — to do this, a domain name must point to the nameserver holding its specific zone file.

How do I know which nameserver to use?

When you register a domain name with us, we automatically park the domain name and set its nameserver to our parking servers. If you activate the domain name or make changes to your website's hosting, your hosting company provides the nameserver names or IP addresses where your domain name's zone file is located. Use this information to update your domain name settings at your registrar. Once you've updated your nameservers or IP address, allow 24 to 48 hours for the new information to propagate through the Internet, and then visitors can reach your website using your domain name.

Dynamic IP vs Static IP

Static IP addressing is for one customer on one IP address and Dynamic IP addressing assigns a different IP address each time the ISP customer logs on to their computer, but this is dependent upon the Internet Service Provider (ISP) because some ISP's only change the IP address as they deem it necessary.

If you have Dynamic IP Addressing through your Website Host it means that you are sharing an IP Address with several other customers.

If you are a beginner on the internet, an avid internet user, are entertaining the thought of starting your own website business, are a gamer, use VOIP or VPN there are several things you should know about IP Addressing.

Static IP Addressing

If you feel the need to always know what your IP address is then you need a Static IP address, because it is constant. Static IP addresses are more reliable for Voice over Internet Protocol (VOIP), more reliable to host a gaming website or to play X-Box, Play Station, use Virtual Private Network for secure access to files from your company network computer, etc. Static IP addresses are also great if you use your computer as a server, as it should give your file server faster file uploads and downloads. Another plus with Static IP's, when hosting a website you are not sharing your IP with another company who sends out a lot of E-mail SPAM and not only has their website been shut down but in turn gets your IP address blacklisted.

In contrast a static IP address can become a security risk, because the address is always the same. Static IP's are easier to track for data mining companies. Static IP addressing is less cost effective than Dynamic IP Addressing.

Dynamic IP Addressing

The biggest advantages of Dynamic IP Addressing are less security risk as the computer is assigned a new IP address each time the customer logs on, they are cost effective and there is automatic network configuration (the less human intervention with network configuration the better). Dynamic addressing is usually used by ISP's so that one IP address can be assigned to several users, however some ISP's use Sticky Dynamic IP Addressing and do not change the IP address very often. Dynamic IP Addressing can be used by families with several computers or by a small business owner who has a home office. The software that comes with a router allows for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) setup and assigns each computer attached to the router an IP address automatically.

In contrast, Dynamic IP addressing should not be used for VOIP, VPN, playing online games or game hosting because Dynamic IP addressing is less reliable then Static IP addressing and could cause the service to disconnect while you are on a VOIP, VPN or gaming.

Forgot Your Xp Password

Forgot Your Xp Password

Many times we forget our Windows password. Then we panic, call experts and finally we lose all important information saved in Windows.

Now here is a way by which we can recover Windows password easily.

1. Place your Windows XP CD in your CD ROM and start your computer (it’s assumed here that your XP CD is bootable – as it should be - and that you have your BIOS set to boot from CD)

2. Keep your eye on the screen messages for booting to your CD typically; it will be “Press any key to boot from CD”

3. Once you get in, the first screen will indicate that Setup is inspecting your system and loading files.

4. When you get to the Welcome to Setup screen, press ENTER to Setup Windows now

5. The Licensing Agreement comes next - Press F8 to accept it

6. The next screen is the Setup screen which gives you the option to do a Repair.It should read something like “If one of the following Windows XP installations is damaged, Setup can try to repair it”Use the up and down arrow keys to select your XP installation (if you only have one, it should already be selected) and press R to begin the Repair process

7. Let the Repair run. Setup will now check your disks and then start copying files which can take several minutes.

8. Shortly after the Copying Files stage, you will be required to reboot. (This will happen automatically – you will see a progress bar stating “Your computer will reboot in 15 seconds”)

9. During the reboot, do not make the mistake of “pressing any key” to boot from the CD again! Setup will resume automatically with the standard billboard screens and you will notice Installing Windows is highlighted.

10. Keep your eye on the lower left hand side of the screen and when you see the Installing Devices progress bar, press SHIFT + F10. This is the security hole! A command console will now open up giving you the potential for wide access to your system.

11. At the prompt, type NUSRMGR.CPL and press Enter. Voila! You have just gained graphical access to your User Accounts in the Control Panel.

12. Now simply pick the account you need to change and remove or change your password as you prefer. If you want to log on without having to enter your new password, you can type control userpasswords2 at the prompt and choose to log on without being asked for password. After you’ve made your changes close the windows, exit the command box and continue on with the Repair (have your Product key handy).

13. Once the Repair is done, you will be able to log on with your new password (or without a password if you chose not to use one or if you chose not to be asked for a password).

Your programs and personalized settings should remain intact.

How to rebuild the Windows boot.ini

Users who have a corrupt or missing boot.ini file, are running Microsoft Windows XP, and have a Microsoft Windows XP CD can rebuild the systems boot.ini file by following the below steps. 

Insert the Microsoft Windows XP CD into the computer. Note: If you have a system recovery CD or restore CD these steps will likely not work for your computer. 

Reboot the computer with the CD and press any key when prompted to press any key to boot from the CD. If you do not receive this prompt and/or are not able to boot from the CD see document CH000217. 

Once in the Microsoft Setup menu press R to open the recovery console. 

Select the operating system you wish to use; if you only have Windows XP on the computer you will only have one prompt. 

Once prompted for the password enter the Admin password and press enter. 

Once at the command prompt type bootcfg /rebuild to start the rebuild process. 

The rebuild process will step you through a number of steps depending upon how many operating systems you have on the computer and how the computer is setup. Below is a listing of the common steps you are likely going to encounter.

* Prompt for the identified versions of Windows installed. When you receive this prompt press Y if the bootcfg command properly identified each of the Windows operating systems installed on the computer. It is important to realize this command will only detect Windows XP, Windows 2000, and Windows NT installations.

* Prompt to enter the load identifier. This is the name of the operating system for the boot.ini. For example, Microsoft Windows XP Home users would enter "Microsoft Windows XP Home edition".

* Prompt to Enter OS load options. When this prompt is received type /fastdetect to automatically detect the available options.

Once you have completed all the available options in the rebuild and are back at the prompt type exit to reboot the computer.

What Kind of Ethernet Cable Should I Use?

Not all Ethernet cable is created equally. What’s the difference, and how do you know which you should use? Let’s look at the technical and physical differences in Ethernet cable categories to help us decide.

Ethernet cables are grouped into sequentially numbered categories (“cat”) based on different specifications; sometimes the category is updated with further clarification or testing standards (e.g. 5e, 6a). These categories are how we can easily know what type of cable we need for a specific application. Manufacturers are required to adhere to the standards which makes our lives easier.

Difference Between Cat Cables Mentioned Below:

3 Magic Tricks

Magic 1:

create a folder and rename it CON

Magic 2:

open a notepad

type there "bush hid the facts"

save and close it

Re open it

Magic 3:

open Microsoft Word

type there "=rand(200,99)" and hit enter

Change your CD-ROM to DVD-ROM

24x to 40x 

40x or higher

Drives slower than 24x are too old to be modded.

24x to 40x CD ROMs

Laser Head Adjustments:

The track pitch of CDs is 1.6 microns, and the track pitch of DVDs is only 0.8 microns. The minimum length of track pits of CDs is 0.843mm, and the minimum length of track pits of DVDs is 0.293mm. That's why DVD discs can store much more data in the size of a CD. 

Pinpointing this situation, we need to adjust the laser head so it can read discs with smaller track pitchs and shorter track pits. Open up the CD-ROM drive, do you see a lens on the rail? That's the laser head. On the side of the laser head, there's a screw you can adjust.

This is the key of this mod.

40x or higher CD ROMs

When 40x CD-ROM drives are released, most manufacturers are already producing DVD-ROM drives. To lower cost, they use the same core as DVD-ROM drives with DVD functions disabled. What we need to do here is to re-enable the DVD function. 

Open up the CD-ROM, behind the circuit board, look for a jumper that says DVD JUMP. Find a jumper to connect this jumper. Thin metal wire also works fine. 

OK, so the DVD function is unlocked, but we still need to decrease the speed. Use the instructions above on how to decrase the speed of the drive.

Note :-

Modded drives cannot be detected in POST, that means you cannot use it in DOS. But once you get into Windows, the drive works fine.

Modded drives have no region code problems.

Modded drives MIGHT NOT read DVD9 discs, that's why I said you can watch most retail DVDs in the beginning .

How To Hide An Entire Partition

If  you're one of those people that have important data to hide or just want to keep your files from prying eyes, this will be useful for you.

TV Technologies

TV's basically come in six different flavours – Plasma, LCD, LED, OLED, CRT, and Rear Projection. While the differing technologies may sound complex, they don't need to be.

Plasma
Capsules of xenon, neon, or argon gas sandwiched between two planes of glass are chemically excited by an electrical current. When excited enough, the gas changes to a plasma, releasing light. The light strikes a phosphorescent layer which produces the required coloured light in each pixel making up the image.

The key features of plasma's are:

• They're economical to manufacture in large sizes, so really big TV's tend to be plasmas
• The have a bright image relative to other TV technologies
• Fast moving images don't blur (unlike on LCD and LED TV's)
• Their glass screens make them prone to picking up reflections in brightly lit rooms
• They are not very efficient – consuming relatively large amounts of electricity
• They are prone to image burn-in

LCD

White light from a series of cold cathode fluorescent lamps (CCFL's) at the back of the TV panel is blocked or allowed through LCD shutters (liquid crystal display – basically the same technology you find on a digital watch face) into red, blue, or green filtered sub-pixels. Switching the light on or off into the sub-pixels creates the appropriate coloured light in each pixel making up the image.

The key features of LCD's are:

• Reduced electricity consumption compared to Plasma TV's
• They are immune to image burn–in
• While the gap is closing, they tend to be expensive in the largest sizes
• LCD's struggle with fast moving images (e.g. sports) causing blurring
• Their viewing angle generally isn't as good as Plasma TV's

LED

This is a marketing term for a type of LCD TV that uses LED's (light emitting diodes) to supply the white light coming from the back of the TV panel. Despite some recent hype about this being a breakthrough technology, it's been around on some TV's since 2004. LED TV's come in two flavours, edge lit (where the LED's are arranged around the outer rim of the TV panel facing inwards) or back-lit (where the rear of the TV panel is made up of LED's).

The key features of LED's are:

• Reduced electricity consumption compared to CCFL LCD and Plasma TV's
• Edge lit TV's tend to be extremely thin and lightweight
• Depending on the technology used (more about that here) LED TV's may display better contrast ratio's (i.e. a deeper blacks) than CCFL LCD TV's
• They are more expensive to produce than CCFL LCD TV's

OLED

Unlike so called LED TV's, OLED TV's are based on a 'true' LED TV technology. Each pixel on the screen is made up of either a red blue or green organic light emitting diode ('organic' is chemistry speak for saying a material contains carbon), which when stimulated by electricity the pixel fluoresce, producing coloured light. The key difference between is that unlike LCD and LED technology, OLED TV's require no backlight, making them extremely energy efficient.

The key features of OLED's are:

• Being made up of just a single layer the panel can be extremely thin, just a few millimetres in some cases
• The most energy efficient of all the TV technologies
• A very new technology that is only available in a few products
• Very expensive to produce, in the short term you are more likely to see these used in laptop displays rather than TV's.

CRT

This is the old-fashioned tube TV that's been around for sixty years or more. A beam of electrons is steered to hit a phosphorescent layer at the front of the screen, forming an image.

The key features of CRT's are:

• Though you can't buy one new, second-hand models are very cheap
• Heavy, and relatively energy inefficient
• A dated technology that is no longer manufactured

Rear Projection

These project a video image from a LCD, CRT, or DLP projector at the rear of the cabinet onto the screen using a system of mirrors

The key features of rear projection TV's are:

• Cheap to produce for large screen sizes
• The arrangement of mirrors means that the TV cabinet can be shallower than CRT TV's – though still much deeper than flat panel plasma, LCD, LED, and OLED TV's
• Rear projection TV's lack brightness, and can look washed out in well lit rooms
• A dated technology that is rapidly dying out
